2:58 There's a 1 kilometer scale in the top right corner of the Burnout Paradise map. I count less then 10×8 squares, so 80 km² max. Even if I would be very generous and say it's 15×12 because my count is way off … that would be a third of the stated 518 km².
The funniest part is that it's not the final map, this was a concept map. A lot of things were removed from it in the final game (the island with the airport and most of the southern part). I have no idea why every single video like this uses the same wrong number for burnout paradise edit : actually found somewhere else that burnout paradise map is around 67km², which is much more believable
In cities skylines you can unlock an area the same size as GTA San Andreas out of a total interactive size greater than GTA5’s map. The cities skylines map extends farther than the total interactive area into the fog, though.
The game is from 1996. What did you expect? All of the bigger maps are procedurally generated. And you don´t even know what that means apparently. The general layout, areas of deserts, forests, mountains was "hand drawn" in lets say, low resolution. And the algorithm creates the details. In a modern engine, the amount of detail and variation could be much bigger.
I've been asking this a lot but can't get a good answer...how exactly do they determine the size of these video game maps and compare them across all these different games/platforms when most of them don't even have a mile/kilometer sort of scale?
Some games when you put a waypoint down in the map it shows you distance in km or miles, GTA and Just Cause both have this for example. As for the rest I never played them so unless they have the same system IDK.
For the most part, game engines work off of real world scale. So if a dev wanted a 200km x 200kkm map is what you'll get in real scale. Then the devs will state the size in like some article or something.
I didn’t realize how tiny Gotham was in Arkham knight. Makes me wonder what it would be like to have a full GTA scale map in a Batman game with all the bat vehicles. That would be awesome.
Far Cry 2 map only shows half of the total game area. Hmm.... Where did the 80km sq come from? (I love that game to death, but I'm curious how half of the map could be left out of the visual.)
I mean it's clear you looked up an awesome-looking custom map that fit your aesthetic for the Minecraft one, rather than a map image of Minecraft Vanilla terrain, but the map in question is 'only' about 204.000 square km (17K by 12K blocks, assuming each block to be 1 meter)
Despite the sky being mostly empty, it's still an addition to what we had in BOTW. Add the overworld and the depths and you have a map 3 times bigger than the previous title.
4:01 Kind of wonder what Minecraft seed that is, And i can tell Minecraft maps can be Much much bigger, this image must have been taken when the Farlands were still a thing.
Videogame map sizes can't just be big for the sake of being big. Needs to have something to do without being boring. Some racing games don't count when you can only play on the roads. Technically you could count Forza Horizon because you can go anywhere. Yes, you can have a big map but if you can't interact with it or doing tasks or quests or whatever, what's the point?
@@DarkElfDiva Actually, it isn't entirely true, the map between cities and dungeons is randomly generated, you can't reach another city unless you use fast travel, traveling on foot will only make you walk through an infinite land without getting anywhere. Only the interior of the cities and the dungeons are not procedurally generated. Outside of cities, I think that you can't even find a place you were at a given moment if you get far away enough.
there are 255 active galaxies and in all of those galaxies are around 5 quintillion systems and in all of those systems are around 18 quintillion planets all thanks to procedural generation@@wojbas471 edit: there are 2 inactive galaxies that you no longer can access
Fallout 4's map is a grid of 54x54 cells. Each cell is 32x32 faces, with each face been scaled to the height of the average character's 180 units. If you equate that to 1.8 meters each cell is 57.6 wide. Making the map roughly 3.1km by 3.1km. Bethesda maps aren't actually "big" when compared to the size of a person. What makes them feel big is perspective. Jogging speed is about double the length of the character per second, about 370u/s. Meaning without sprinting, and no obstructions, it takes roughly 16 seconds to cross one cell. The game is designed to be nothing but rough terrain with interruptions. In the real world 16 seconds feels like little, but playing a game, even 10 seconds can feel like a drag if you are just walking. Skyrim is 119 cells at widest, but a lot of that is ridiculous terrain that impedes movement a lot, making everything it feel like much more.

Eine minecraft Ksrte erkunden und grosse Teile kartografieren ist vielleicht nicht so spannend wie die anderen Spiele, allerdings immernoch sehr interessant. Unglaublich was in diesem Spiel steckt, nur durch seine "billige" Pixelgraphik ist das möglich. Dieses Spiel wird bleiben 😂. Ein grosses Dankeschön an die Macher 👏🏻👍🏻. Man kann dabei Action haben.

No Mans Sky is actualy bigger than Minecraft

Doesn’t count it’s an open sandbox game. Educate yourself before comment something stupid

While daggerfall is huge it’s not full of detail it’s procedurally generated

It would also be necessary to show a map of the «Euro Track Stimulator 2» game world.
True
Far Cry 2 map only shows half of the total game area.

For me, the presence of Minecraft is silly here, all the worlds in it are randomly generated.
yes but they are all the same size
Yeah, 100% agree.
The thing is, that no player will ever generate those 4096000000KM2.
True but the sizes of any Minecraft world are pretty much infinite. No matter what world you join.
@@HeinzAnimationunless they're crazy enough to take years of their time to travel to the farlands
@@NullCantHandleFreddie But then they still haven't generated the 4096000000KM2 lol
Really didn’t expect botw to be bigger than Skyrim also WHY IS IT SO ZOOMED IN
What about Tears of the Kingdom. You could technically combine all the layers as one since the map is technically bigger.
Despite the sky being mostly empty, it's still an addition to what we had in BOTW. Add the overworld and the depths and you have a map 3 times bigger than the previous title.
And to think when I first played GTA 3 when it came out, I thought the city was huge. lol

Starlink: Battle for Atlas spans multiple planets (and the space between them) and is not procedurally generated.

Star Citizen has them all beat, there are whole planets and moons to explore in a solar system, with no loading screens
Fr though biggest maps ver are for sure , Jedi fallen order, Jedi survivor, star field and star citizen, elite dangerous odyssey, and no mans sky.
Please show the map of Europa Universalis IV also: 510.100.000 km^2...but still smaller than Minecraft xD
I think games from paradox don't need in this top because it's map of earth lol
